The problem is likely the moving of the IR drivers into the kernel
that has been going on.

I use Mythbuntu, and am not familiar with recent Fedora systems.  But
you might like to look at the working Mythbuntu setup I have for
download on my web server:

That is for my Hauppauge MCE remote, and also Hauppauge Nova TD-500
and HVR-900r2 remotes, on Mythbuntu 14.04.  It should give you some
clues about how to fix your problem, and the README has a basic guide
on the process of setting it all up and debugging it.
